Condition monitoring of PARR-1 rotating machines by vibration analysis technique

Vibration Based Condition Monitoring in Rotating Machineries

In Chapters 15 and 16, the measurement and signal processing techniques, transducers, signal conditioners and signal analysis equipments are described, which are used in the rotating machinery condition monitoring. It is very important to display the measured signal in convenient form so as to be useful for the interpretation of the condition of rotating machinery. In the present chapter, by lo...

Wheelset Condition Monitoring based on pass-by vibration signals

Apart from regular wheel wear such as decreasing wheel diameters and reduced flange thicknesses and heights, wheel flats (WF) and oval wheels (or OOR, Out-Of-Roundness) are the most common wheelset problems for railway vehicles. Within the FP7 Research Project “Saferail”, APT has developed an innovative wheelset monitoring system so-called “Wheel flat and Out of Roundness Monitoring (WORM) syst...

Application of Bicoherence Analysis on Vibration Data for Condition Based Monitoring of Rotating Machinery

Bicoherence or Bispectrum analysis is emerging as a new powerful technique in signal processing, especially in areas where traditional linear spectral analysis provides insufficient information. It is most effective in analyzing systems with non-linear coupling between frequencies. Faults in rotating machineries leave their signature on the vibration signal sensors and generally manifest themse...
